What I found was that it is hard to find someone with the male and female stamps .If I could get the stamps I would make them my self ..Somone is making the" FORD" plate behind the driver .I know some that got them .
The two plates I was trying to get are 104x38 mm ,the letters or numbers are 6mm and 4 mm high The plate is .015 or 1/2 mm thick made of zinc .The stamps are backward as it is stamped from the back so as to get razed letters .This requires two stamps .A male and a female to make one letter .The stamps that you can buy are for front stamping .Could a CNC milling machine make a set ? If anone wants to see if they can find these stamps give it a try .

I used to work for an industrial supply company. I cannot remember which vendor it was but metal stamps of any kind can be made, including reverse.
Expect to pay a few hundred dollars for a set.

Hi George,
Robert would be the man most capable to reproduce your plates. He tooled up and made the hull tags for my weasel using the same method that is being discussed in this post. Please see photo Cheers John W. |
